Joe hasn't run in years. He has been retired for decades. Last election, he barely left his basement. He acts like a man who knows he doesn't NEED to campaign because like before, the fix is in. Nothing the democrats do is up front or honest. Everything is subterfuge and misdirection.
Republicans operate in predictable, linear, newtonian straight lines while democrats operate in multi-dimensional hyperboloidal quasi-space. Republicans use whole number arithmetic; democrats use virtual number calculus. Everything they say is divisive and opposite the truth, everything they accuse is what they themselves are doing, so it would be in keeping with their usual MO to be planning a huge October surprise and to once again try some outrageous and illegal maneuver taking some shortcut to victory because no democrat could ever get elected on the facts.
